Select a photo on Photobucket. To the right should be the legend "Links to share this photo". Click in the white space next to "IMG" and it will momentarily turn yellow with the word "Copied". The link is now on your clipboard and can be pasted into the message body box in this forum.

Job done.

I find that Photobucket adds ~original after the .jpg. Try deleting that bit so the link ends in jpg.

Hi A20JOO,

Glad to hear all has arrived safely, now you have a little work to do. It would be wise to introduce yourself on this French Forum which is a great source of spares:

http://nezdecochon.forumparfait.com/faq.php

also some spares can be found here:

http://www.serie04.com/fr/

I have a pair of new orange front indicator lenses and two old gaskets, and a pair of Stadium door mirrors and arms (of the period but strictly speaking not of original fitment)
which you can have for a small sum delivered to your door if you like.... send me a pm



Good Luck and keep us updated.
Steve

She looks very good the way she is. (Outwardly unrestored)

Hello again,

regarding the door mirrors, I see that there is in fact an original mirror arm on the left side, do you have the other one too?

Here is how it left the factory:
